- Stand at a 45° angle to a wall, so that your working leg is the outside leg.
- Bend your other knee and rest it against the wall, lifting your toes off the ground. Do not push into the wall, this is purely for balance.
- Stand up straight, pull your shoulders high and look straight ahead.
- Try to turn your upper thigh outwards. This is a small movement, and you should only feel the muscles in your buttock / side of hip turn on.
- Hold for the amount of time prescribed by your physiotherapist.
- Tip: Avoid activating the quadriceps (front of thigh muscles). If you can keep these relaxed, it will increase the activation of your gluteals.
